# yes(1)

## NAME

         yes - an endless stream of the same word

## SYNOPSIS

         yes [answer]

## EXAMPLES

         yes | script        # Answer yes to all questions from the script

## DESCRIPTION

         Yes sends out an endless stream of y's, each on one line.  One uses it to
         automatically  say  "yes"  to  all  questions a command may ask.  This is
         useful for commands that ask too many "Are  you  sure?"  questions.   The
         optional  argument makes yes use answer as the word to print instead of a
         single y character.
